Information sent on behalf ofNotts Police

While on foot patrol on at 12.15pm on 02/10, PCSO Richard Dunn was approached by an elderly female who stated that her friend was walking through Sheppards Row near to Kings Court, Southwell, when she was approached by an Asian looking male, very smartly dressed asking her for change for a pound. She did not engage with him and left. This happened a couple of days ago but she did not report it to Police.
If the person then gets her purse or wallet out he takes as many notes as possible and runs off.
If you have any elderly relatives please make them aware that they need to be vigilant when out and about and not to engage in any conversations with strangers.
